Are you an ambitious finance professional ready for that next major step?

I’m working on a fantastic opportunity for a Financial Controller to join a growing, PE-backed business as the number two to the CFO, with a clear plan for this person to step into the CFO’s shoes in the near future.

This role is easily commutable from Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, Rutland and South Yorkshire, perfect for finance leaders across the East Midlands looking for their next big step.

The business is scaling rapidly, having recently transitioned from family ownership to private equity backing. They’re investing heavily in systems, structure, and strategy — and this is your chance to play a leading role in that journey.

If you’ve got the drive, leadership, and motivation to step into a high-impact position, this could be the one.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Leading the production of monthly management and statutory accounts
• Managing cash flow, treasury, and liquidity across the group
• Overseeing group audits and acting as key contact for auditors
• Driving budgeting, forecasting, and financial modelling activity
• Supporting systems development and process improvements
• Managing VAT and tax submissions with external advisors
• Mentoring and developing the finance team
• Providing financial insight and challenge to the CFO and wider board

About You:

• ACA / ACCA / CIMA qualified
• Strong technical accounting knowledge and experience in group reporting
• Confident managing cash and audit processes
• Highly experienced in financial modelling and forecasting
• Experienced leading teams and building processes
• Adaptable, proactive, and ready to take ownership
• Experience in a PE-backed or high-growth business preferred

If you’re ready for a senior role with real progression, influence and a voice at the top table, this is a rare opportunity to fast-track your career within a dynamic, ambitious business.
